I have used this lens on numerous occasions and absolutely love it. It's my favourite lens by far. On a side note, how does one embed videos on the forum these days? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvs-vgQvgvY

Underwater Colour Correction With The Sony AX100
Pete L replied to Pete L's topic in Video Gear and Technique
Glad you enjoyed it Tony. -
Although I'm not a fan of fisheye video, I did enjoy that. Well done, it looks great

A small sample of clips from my first outing with the Laowa 24mm probe lens, mounted in a Gates housing. Two things of note - Stability. A tripod will be very helpful to keep the shots stabilised. Any movement is exaggerated with this lens. Light. At a minimum of F14, this lens needs some serious light and it also has a very shallow depth of field. I like the new perspective this lens will give and I feel like interacting with animals will be far more entertaining using this lens. https://youtu.be/doT3IQx2o54

Underwater Colour Correction With The Sony AX100
Pete L replied to Pete L's topic in Video Gear and Technique
Hey Val, I haven't had time to write another in depth article for the AX700 as yet but it is a significant leap forward over the AX100. I am currently in the process of creating a full post production training series, using the free version of Davinci Resolve so keep an eye out for that when it is released. Cheers Pete. -
Don't confuse BT2020 with HDR. They are not one and the same. You can record and or deliver in BT2020 but if you want to deliver HDR then you must set your timeline to monitor and deliver an HDR compliant file.
-
Keepin mind that HDR is not resolution specific. Comparing HDR to 4K is not really a viable comparison.

Bali Macro on red Scarlet W
Pete L replied to Pete L's topic in Shooting Technique, Workflow and Editing
Thank you Lior Thanks Evil Otter LOL. YouTube has compressed the image quality as well. If your housing is trimmed up nicely, you can get good stable footage handheld. It does take some practice though. -

Bub it was my first time in Bali and the rubbish situation was an eye opener for sure. It is a shame that the Balinese treat the land that way. -
Bali Macro on red Scarlet W

No tripod used Pyroracer. All handheld. Having a housing that is able to be trimmed up for neutral buoyancy makes a huge difference. One of the many benefits of using a dedicated video system is the ability to trim the housing perfectly. Plenty of practice helps too mate. -
Bali Macro on red Scarlet W

Certainly could be Bub but I didn't see a need to do that. The amount of rubbish was quite astonishing. -
A little selection of macro goodness from a recent trip to Bali. Huge thanks to the entire team at The Underwater Tribe for taking me diving For anyone interested, this is the equipment list and settings etc - Shot on Red Scarlet W, 5K @ 40fps on a 25fps base timeline. Gates Pro Action Housing and Gates GT-14 Video Lights were used. The Nikon 70-180mm macro lens was also used and turned out to be a very versatile lens. The R3D's were edited and graded in Resolve 14.1 and a couple of clips were post stabilised. There wasn't a great deal of grading needed as the H20 OLPF works nicely, especially when white balanced off a white slate. Hope you enjoy.

Davinci Resolve 14

Despite almost zero information within the Red colour channel, the R3D files from the Scarlet W still grade up nicely. Took about 12 nodes to get to this point but considering the starting point of this clip, it turned out reasonably well, especially given the conditions. Conditions were tough with maybe 5 metres vis, surgy and lots of floating particles. This shot was about 18 metres deep. Scarlet W, 5k 50fps, Nikon 16-35mm and 8 inch dome on the Gates Pro Action Housing. Graded in Davinci Resolve 14.

Managing video files and work flow
Pete L replied to kun1's topic in Shooting Technique, Workflow and Editing
Resolve will let you subclip and export that subclip as a new file.
